Hey guys!
Finally took delivery of my Melbourne Red 340 on Saturday! Ordered the car back in April. Haven't had a chance to post it on here. The car is awesome! Turned in my BMW 335is which was a Takata car. Really miss the car but the new one is awesome. Pros and cons in the first few days: Pros: -great power! Definitely no loss from my IS -Interior is awesome. Not dated at all. The saddle is gorgeous IMO -MT is awesome -HUD (There are obviously more) Cons: -Wish they would have done more with the gauge cluster. They could have done a lot by making the entire lower part digital -Not as loud as my IS but I know that's a gripe from a lot of people Mods: Not doing much. Ordered the 405M rims and the CF spoiler which should come in next week. Also will be coding it! Btw I am selling the current brand new rims and tires. PM me if you're interested. As always, thanks to you all for advice and answering questions! One question I have so far...I test drove an M235i MT, and when it stalled, the car automatically started back for you instantaneously. Is that possible on the 3? Does it have to do with the Auto start/stop being enables?

Beautiful car! Yea yours should auto stop/start also but with the manuals you have to keep the clutch in when you come to a stop. The details are in the owners manual. How much do you want for the wheels and will you consider shipping?

Congrats, love the color choice! I also have the saddle interior in my 340 with Mediterranean Blue exterior. I have been blown away by this car including the incredible gas mileage I have gotten on trips - better than my old 328/E90 - almost 34mpg on a trip to Indianapolis last month. Enjoy your new ride!
